Retail/food service are truly thankless jobs. I remember the not-so-distant past when H worked a full day on a sprained knee because no one would come in and replace him so he could go to the doctor. People suck. That really sucks. The good news: H's supervisor offered to cover. They will also likely cover his bills, since it happened at work. Glad someone's covering for him. And thank goodness for workman's comp.

efmcc67 I'm glad YH was able to leave early Ugh. My car smells like something is rotting. I can't imagine what it is. I never eat in the car. I'm going to have to pull all my dog stuff out tonight and find the source. It's killing me.

I can’t believe your H had to find someone to cover for him. At my work, if one of the hourly guys gets injured, a salaried person has to take them to the hospital. It’s not always immediately, but if it’s serious enough to even consider going to urgent care, they stop what they’re doing and go in the trailer. There is also a shit ton of paperwork. I have no idea how much of this is legislature based vs union agreement, but it blows my mind that your H would be expected to keep working after getting burnt.
I hope the burn ends up not being too serious, and that his wait at urgent care isn’t too long.

I have weather tech mats, so I don't think the mats themselves are stinky or anything got under them. My guess is it's a stray dog treat, which probably means I'm going to have to pull the crate out.

H got checked out. The doctor says it's mostly a first degree burn with a little second degree damage, so I'm glad I talked him into going! They want to see him again over the next couple days.
It sounds like he's okay, but I'm so tempted to just go home right now. I let my supervisor know (since I was texting with H through a whole meeting, I wanted to explain), and she's fine with me leaving if I have to. I just have so much going on right now, I want to make some progress if I can.

In other news, I just got out of a staff meeting. I think I've mentioned before that we're doing a big space move. Our planner apparently messed up in a huge way. He'd been given an allotment of money. He thought it was for planning the project. In reality, it was for the WHOLE project. Planning, design, renovation, furniture. Everything. And this was discovered after spending a lot of the budget on just the planning.

I hope your H heals quickly efmcc67 and ouch to the budget issue. I went to lunch with my mom today. I got a sandwich that was described as barbecued ham with cheddar and onion on a pretzel roll. In reality it was sliced ham with barbecue sauce. So fucking disappointing.

LINGERLONGER, that's so disappointing. I hear barbecued ham, I think something more like smoked pit ham.

WTF to the planner, efmcc67?! I'm sorry your lunch was disappointing, LINGERLONGER. That's not what I would be expecting either.

LINGERLONGER , that's so disappointing. I hear barbecued ham, I think something more like smoked pit ham. Right. Barbecued ham =/= Ham with barbecue sauce. The barbecue sauce wasn't very good and the ham was extremely salty. Blech. At least their fries are good.

And yeah, salty BBQ sauce with salty ham doesn't sound awesome.

It's not BBQ, but there's a little restaurant near me that does awesome southern food - fried chicken, chicken and waffles, shrimp po'boy, hush puppies, etc. I need to go back there. Soon.

I love southern food so much. You know what I don't love right now? Amazon. My nonstick skillet is wearing out, so I ordered a replacement. It took them a week to ship it, and when it arrived, it was dented. So, I reported it damaged. They sent a new one. It arrived today, also damaged.

I know its popular arpund her to get chipped chopped ham and put bbq and maybe other things in it. Usually cooked/heated in the crockpot. I have no clue if I have ever eaten that before so I have no clue if its any good. Oh wait was it bbq sauce on top of the ham. Nevermind.

efmcc67, I'm glad he got checked out. I'm surprised his supervisor wasn't adamant that he go. I would think suck a big name company would want to make sure they covered their asses. LINGERLONGER, I would have been disappointed with that sandwich too. There is a group of boys in here being disruptive. I've already asked them to stop (both today and Sunday) and I'm pretty sure they're part of some sports team. They're just cruising for an email to their coach.
